Challenging Day

Good morning all, Steve again.  Yesterday proved to be pretty challenging as Lee had a return of her nausea and vomiting, which is difficult enough without having just had abdominal surgery.  Getting relief and control of this is her top prayer request for today as it makes all the other parts of her recovery much more challenging. Lee says this round of the nausea feels like it could be a reaction between some of the different medications she’s receiving and as you can see from the attached photo there are plenty of things to interact.  

She and her nurses have (not so) affectionately named her pump tower “Thor” (I didn’t ask...). Obviously Thor  must go with Lee everywhere so she’s also having to focus intently on her navigation skills.  Since she’s not supposed to lift or move anything greater than 5 pounds, this presents some unique challenges.  She’s anxious to talk with her doctor this morning to see if there are any of the current medications that can be adjusted or eliminated in order to both improve her nausea and hopefully keep Thor from tipping over or collapsing.  Please be in prayer for this discussion and that she can get relief from the nausea and vomiting.  

Thank you in advance and we really appreciate you continuing to follow Lee’s recovery and keeping her in your prayers.
